Saw him onstage with Tim Conway a few years back. Too bad the entertainment industry largely passed them by in their later years.

Good one! Classic!

While surfing other related clips, I ran across this one. For you Harry Potter movie fans out there; check out the "tart" in this one.

He brought a lot of laughter to a lot of people, and the world needs that. He will be missed.

Harvey Korman was the kind of entertainer who respected his audiences and never tried to tell them what to think or get them to gawk at his private life. If only there were more like that.

Aw, man. He was one of a kind and will definitely be missed.

Also glad to see there are so many Blazing Saddles fans in here — I wore out a VHS tape of the movie from watching it so many times.

Leave us not forget that he was also “the Great Gazoo” on the Flinstones.

And “IT is BALOON!” from F-Troop.

The world is a little more dark. You are missed Mr. Korman.

I knew it just about word for word. Brooks and Richard Pryor wrote a halarious movie.

Bummer. Blazing Saddles has to be the funniest movie made. Amazing how well it’s held up. He was great on the Carol Burnett show as well.

This was one of those occasions where I have to say “gee, I wish I’d seen him when he was in town!”

all who worked on it seemed to love it as well.

I spent six years working behind the scenes on it, and loved every minute. Harvey was a gentle soul, and the perfect straight-man. What a loss.
